Abstract

The best means of dealing with the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is to not get coronavirus within the initial place. Hospitals and health care clinics are among the major places to avoid COVID-19 as it seen that all the extremely sick people go there to get treatment. However, for health care employees, doctors, and the sick people themselves, there is extremely no different choice. To stop the unfold of coronavirus through hospitals, health clinics and Containment zones keeping the surfaces and surroundings disinfected is essentially necessary. However, it is seen that these places are also dirty, dull, and considering that, you will be infected with dangerous virus. Thus, employing a machine that may do an equivalent task while not involving the human contact is a perfect alternative for dealing with this condition. This project describes the role of robots in health care and virus infected areas and the way to manage the unfold of the novel coronavirus illness (COVID-19). The most purpose of such robots is to reduce personal contact and to confirm cleaning and support in hospitals and similar facilities like quarantine zones. This project can be very useful in minimizing the life threat to medical staffs and doctors by taking a full of life role within the management of the COVID-19 pandemic.
